until 1978 when GM abandoned Argentina they were all Chevrolet plus Opel K180 (I posted some pictures above)
as a resume, in 1978 GM Argentina had for sell:
C10 shortbed fleetside pickup. (230" and 250" six-in-line)
4 door opel K180 (a 4 cylinder engine based on the 6 in line)
Chevy Nova 4 door Super and Malibu models (Malibu was the full model) with 230" and 250"
Chevy Nova coupe SS, exactly like mine with 250"
here is a post of the 1978 coupe similar to mine (all original)

the cost depends on the conditions of the vehicle. you can buy rotten chevys for 1 or 2 thousand dollars (i mean almost destroyed with no engine...)
a chevrolet in a usable condition (re-painted) goes from 5 thousand dls and up.
a nova coupe like mine its the most wanted model. recently a guy offered me 20.000 dollars... and i said no! lots of people insulted me telling that i'm crazy... and yes... I AM!!!
a pick-up its around the same prices, 5 thousand and up. but mines are priceless!
